# tigris mk

Create a bucket (bare name) or a folder inside a bucket (bucket/folder/ with trailing slash).

**Alias:** `create`

## Usage[​](#usage "Direct link to Usage")

```
tigris mk <path> [flags]

t3 create <path> [flags]
```

Paths support the optional `t3://` (or `tigris://`) prefix (e.g. `t3://my-bucket/path` or just `my-bucket/path`). A trailing slash creates a folder inside the bucket.

## Flags[​](#flags "Direct link to Flags")

Flags only apply when creating a bucket (not folders).
